"In every way worthy of an author who, as an authority upon the Western Indians, is second to none. A book full of color, abounding in observation, and remarkable in sustained interest, it is at the same time characterized by a grace of style which is rarely to be looked for in such a work, and which adds not a little to the charm of it."--_London Daily Chronicle._ "Only an author qualified by personal experience could offer us a profitable study of a race so alien from our own as is the Indian in thought, feeling, and culture. Only long association with Indians can enable a white man measurably to comprehend their thoughts and enter into their feelings. Such association has been Mr. Grinnell's."--_New York Sun._ _THE STORY OF THE MINE._ By CHARLES HOWARD SHINN. Illustrated. 12mo. Cloth, $1.50. "The author has written a book, not alone full of information, but replete with the true romance of the American mine."--_New York Times._ "Few chapters of recent history are more fascinating than that which Mr. Shinn has told in 'The Story of the Mine.'"--_The Outlook._ "Both a history and a romance.... Highly interesting, new, and thrilling."--_Philadelphia Inquirer._ _IN PREPARATION._ The Story of the Trapper. By GILBERT PARKER. The Story of the Cowboy. By E. HOUGH. The Story of the Soldier. By Capt. J. MCB. STEMBEL, U.S.A. The Story of the Explorer. The Story of the Railroad. * * * * * New York: D. APPLETON & CO. 82 Fifth Avenue. D. APPLETON AND COMPANY'S PUBLICATIONS. _IN JOYFUL RUSSIA._ By JOHN A. LOGAN, Jr. With 50 Illustrations in color and black and white. 12mo. Cloth, $3.50. "Of extreme interest from beginning to end. Mr. Logan has animation of style, good spirits, a gift of agreeable and enlivening expression, and a certain charm which may be called companionableness. To travel, with him must have been a particular pleasure. He has sense of humor, a way of getting over rough places, and understanding of human nature. There is not a dull chapter in his book."--_New York Times._ "Mr. Logan has written of the things which he saw with a fullness that leaves nothing to be desired for their comprehension; with an eye that was quick to perceive their novelty, their picturesqueness, their national significance, and with a mind not made up beforehand--frankly open to new impressions, alert in its perceptions, reasonable in its judgment, manly, independent, and, like its environments, filled with holiday enthusiasm."--_New York Mail and Express._ "No more fresh, original, and convincing picture of the Russian people and Russian life has appeared.... The author has described picturesquely and in much detail whatever he has touched upon.... Few books of travel are at once so readable and so informing, and not many are so successfully illustrated; for the pictures tell a story of their own, while they also interpret to the eye a vivid narrative."--_Boston Herald._
